README:
GPT Researcher is an open deep research agent designed for both web and local research on any given task.
The agent produces detailed, factual, and unbiased research reports with citations. GPT Researcher provides a full suite of customization options to create tailor made and domain specific research agents. Inspired by the recent Plan-and-Solve and RAG papers, GPT Researcher addresses misinformation, speed, determinism, and reliability by offering stable performance and increased speed through parallelized agent work.
Our mission is to empower individuals and organizations with accurate, unbiased, and factual information through AI.
- Objective conclusions for manual research can take weeks, requiring vast resources and time.
- LLMs trained on outdated information can hallucinate, becoming irrelevant for current research tasks.
- Current LLMs have token limitations, insufficient for generating long research reports.
- Limited web sources in existing services lead to misinformation and shallow results.
- Selective web sources can introduce bias into research tasks.

The core idea is to utilize 'planner' and 'execution' agents. The planner generates research questions, while the execution agents gather relevant information. The publisher then aggregates all findings into a comprehensive report.
Steps:
- Create a task-specific agent based on a research query.
- Generate questions that collectively form an objective opinion on the task.
- Use a crawler agent for gathering information for each question.
- Summarize and source-track each resource.
- Filter and aggregate summaries into a final research report.
- 📝 Generate detailed research reports using web and local documents.
- 🖼️ Smart image scraping and filtering for reports.
- 📜 Generate detailed reports exceeding 2,000 words.
- 🌐 Aggregate over 20 sources for objective conclusions.
- 🖥️ Frontend available in lightweight (HTML/CSS/JS) and production-ready (NextJS + Tailwind) versions.
- 🔍 JavaScript-enabled web scraping.
- 📂 Maintains memory and context throughout research.
- 📄 Export reports to PDF, Word, and other formats.
GPT Researcher now includes Deep Research - an advanced recursive research workflow that explores topics with agentic depth and breadth. This feature employs a tree-like exploration pattern, diving deeper into subtopics while maintaining a comprehensive view of the research subject.
- 🌳 Tree-like exploration with configurable depth and breadth
- ⚡️ Concurrent processing for faster results
- 🤝 Smart context management across research branches
- ⏱️ Takes ~5 minutes per deep research
- 💰 Costs ~$0.4 per research (using
o3-mini
on "high" reasoning effort)

This project, GPT Researcher, is an experimental application and is provided "as-is" without any warranty, express or implied. We are sharing codes for academic purposes under the Apache 2 license. Nothing herein is academic advice, and NOT a recommendation to use in academic or research papers.
Our view on unbiased research claims:
- The main goal of GPT Researcher is to reduce incorrect and biased facts. How? We assume that the more sites we scrape the less chances of incorrect data. By scraping multiple sites per research, and choosing the most frequent information, the chances that they are all wrong is extremely low.
- We do not aim to eliminate biases; we aim to reduce it as much as possible. We are here as a community to figure out the most effective human/llm interactions.
- In research, people also tend towards biases as most have already opinions on the topics they research about. This tool scrapes many opinions and will evenly explain diverse views that a biased person would never have read.
